Just the lyrics here, but look for her version on line via Ed Sullivan Show

I loves you, Porgy
Don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me and drive me mad
If you can keep me, I wanna stay here
With you forever and I'll be glad
Yes I loves you, Porgy
Don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me with his hot hands
If you can keep me I wants to stay here
With you forever, I've got my man
I loves you, Porgy
Don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me and drive me mad
If you can keep me, I wanna stay here
With you forever, I've got my man
Someday I know he's coming to call me
He's going to handle me and hold me
So, it's going to be like dying, Porgy
When he calls me
But when he comes I know, I'll have to go
I loves you, Porgy
Don't let him take me
Honey, don't let him handle me and drive me mad
If you can keep me, I wanna stay here
With you forever, I've got my man

Porgy And Bess by Diahann Carroll And The André Previn Trio, released on United Artists in 1959.

Soho The Dog wrote:

Diahann Carroll had played Clara in Goldwyn’s Porgy but, at Goldwyn’s behest, her singing was dubbed by soprano Loulie Jean Norman, which must have been a real insult to a singer of Carroll’s caliber. As Previn scholar Frédéric Döhl has noted, Goldwyn’s reverence for the material, both asserted from within and imposed from without, led him to fill the soundtrack with classical singers in order, as Döhl puts it, to “orient the aesthetic emphasis of the sound towards opera.” That might be why Carroll and producer Jack Lewis wanted to tilt away from the source toward jazz. With Previn’s trio... it’s much as one might imagine a “modern jazz interpretations of” Porgy and Bess...
